Hunter Parrish wins Missouri Amateur in 38-hole playoff with Nurski on his bag

Hunter Parrish stood over a par putt on the second playoff hole Sunday afternoon at Milburn Country Club, the weight of a decade between him and this moment. He'd been the runner-up in 2016. Now, with four-time Missouri Amateur champion Brad Nurski reading the line from behind the bag, Parrish rolled it in for par. Logan Mayo missed his, and Parrish had his first state amateur title.

The 119th Missouri Amateur Championship came down to 38 holes, Parrish outlasting Mayo of Tontitown, Arkansas, after neither player could separate in regulation. The championship match played under clear skies and steady 15-to-20 mph winds featured seven lead changes and never saw either golfer extend beyond a two-hole margin.
